Best Boy Beyond Precocious boy, yon ere the age of twelve, Parades vast knowledge, complexity swelled, Our simplistic share was well understood, Kept back of minds, preserves naive childhood. Green imparts years cherished adolescence, Bottled, we heed, coupled coalescence, Errant appendages spark normal steps, Blessed gifted faculties, as classmates frets. Removed and placed amongst the elder kids, Baffled apostles sought entertained bids, A young mind satisfy matured scholars, Acquaint the novice school well-spent dollars. Stands amidst the rare few emboss his name, An honorary plaque glistens the fame, Hung in the schools enclosed glass curio, Caught all cherished moments on video. Commencement day, he did stand with the rest, His valedictory speech of years blessed, Preteen vested had rivaled teenagers, Acclaimed college exemplary majors. Evolved above academia's zone, Ate hamburgers, fries, and an ice cream cone. 2021 March 29 *3rd Place* A Graduation Blessing ~~BJ Legros Kelley
